I'm not a fan of sweet potatoes, but I loved this dish! The amaretto liqueur and orange zest really elevated the flavor of the potatoes.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used almond milk instead of amaretto liqueur in this recipe. It turned out great!

I would love to try this recipe with different types of sweet potatoes, like purple or white sweet potatoes.

My favorite part about this dish is the crispy caramelized crust on top of the potatoes. So good!

I accidentally used maple syrup instead of brown sugar in this recipe. They still turned out great!

I thought the sweet potatoes were a bit bland. I would add some spices or herbs next time to give them more flavor.

I found that the potatoes took a bit longer to cook than the recipe stated. I had to add an extra 15 minutes to the cooking time.

These sweet potatoes were a hit at our Thanksgiving dinner! They had a nice balance of sweetness and nuttiness, and the orange zest added a bright, citrusy flavor that really complemented the potatoes.
